McEntee’s videos always feature the Project 2025 chief of HR sitting down at a table in a restaurant eating while making pithy racist and offensive observations, typically about gender ideology and diversity equity and inclusion, that Trump supporters can’t help but enthusiastically devour.

In his latest viral take, McEntee poses a question about abortion access in red states that came up during Tuesday night’s presidential debate.

“Can someone track down the women Kamala Harris says are bleeding out in parking lots because Roe v. Wade was overturned?” he asks. “Don’t hold your breath.”

McEntee asked, and women answered. Many made video responses to McEntee telling their own stories. One particularly powerful video from Carmen Broesder with account name @geekynerdbitchcarmen was shared by WordClownand AGirlHasNoPresident on Instagram and received nearly five million views

    All it took was for someone to ask.

    Correction, it takes people listening, which I doubt anybody involved in Project 2025 intends to do. At least not to women.

    I think the proprietor of the restaurant where that video is filmed (and anyone else who tolerates pieces of shit like this in public spaces) needs a reminder:

    Those who try to destroy society do not deserve to participate in it.

      Always a good reminder. It’s dismaying how many people don’t understand or refuse to believe that the paradox of tolerance is very real.

        Tolerance is a social contract, if you are tolerant of others you will be tolerated as well. It can be the most terse a step from violence tolerance but so long as folks follow it then it remains. But once ya break it then the group ya broke it against has no reason to be tolerant of you, neither are those who align with them.

        For example I fucking hate the Seventh day Adventists, its for mostly ancestral reasons but I hate them and refuse to act tolerant towards them. I am not entitled to the tolerance nor civility of those who think that is unacceptable, nor do I want it.

          Can I ask about the Seventh Day Adventists? I’ve run into a few over the years but never had issues and don’t know much of them. Is what they did more than personal? If so I’d like to avoid them too. I have precious little patience for bad religious nonsense.

            Its multiple things, for one my neighbor who is like kin to me was abused by her father growing up and the Adventist protected him. Thats more personal compared to my families gripes, basically we’ve been dealing with them for about a hundred years legally, socially, and economically. The main things that fuel that side of my hatred is the hypocrisy, the dishonor, and the fact that they will take the most underhanded and spineless way of gaining political control.

            Theyve mellowed out kinda in the last 50 years according to my family, but the church structure is more or less the same. Think of it as a slightly toned down Jehovah’s witnesses with some scientology mixed in, the people may be fine but the leadership is fucken horrid and abusive to their own.

            They also do shunning or at least used to which is fucking abhorrent, ya dont exile kin just because they broke a stupid religious tenant.

              That all definitely makes sense. I’ve heard of a few sects doing shunning and segregation of members perceived to have sinned. It’s a horrid practice that I assume is better serving to drive people away than encouraging them to come back. But your community abusing you like that can have a potent enmeshment effect too. Especially if the relationship was always perceived as close and good.

              Thanks for talking about it. Seems a good group to avoid.

    He’s trying to seem extremely casual by sitting down and talking like this. To make it seem like its completely normal and common. Well no, its not completely normal to allow our own American Women to be receiving this lack of care on top.of an already religiously charged societal hatred. I’ve tolerated enough of this intolerance as have the rest of us. These people will continue to act with pride and impunity until they are physically made to shut the fuck up. They are toxic generators, spewing virtiol into our air waves and destroying the minds of the vulnerable. Their rhetoric is not harmless, as we have recently seen with attacks on immigrants after the debate. These people are as dangerous as any weapon and should be treated as such. Thats what they do to everyone else, threaten and throw mobs. Shame was a pillar of the community, without it this is what we get.

      Shit, I’ve seen some of his videos! I remember laughing at first because I thought he was playing a stupid and cringe character, like he was doing a parody. Then I realized no, he is actually just a gross person who really is stupid and cringe all the time.

        Walter Masterson parodies him though and it’s wonderful watching the magats melting down in his comments.

        He’s reasonably good looking and we naturally trust attractive people, for whatever biological reason. I think it’s not unrealistic to think that it’s parody for a couple of lines.

          Oh man, just wondering what would happen if they had an Elephant Man-looking dude as this exec of P2025 and doing these videos.

    I have seen that asshole’s smug condescending videos. He makes JD Vance look like a saint.

    Absolute punchable face
